On
Monday, Mitt Romney offered a remedy to the problem that caused his
wife’s airplane to land prematurely last week: Allow passengers to roll
down the airplane windows.

Ann Romney’s plane was grounded Friday
after the main cabin filled with smoke. The small electrical fire
caused no injuries, but apparently did cause the Presidential candidate
to forget the dangers of altitude.

“When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly,” he told the LA Times.
“And you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the
aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do
that. It’s a real problem.”

Maybe we should
explain to Romney about the lack of oxygen at altitude, and the concept
of pressurization. Or we could send him out on a private jet and let him
open the door for the big picture concept. They say it's worth a
thousand words.
